Webinar: From Virtual Pre-Operative Planning to Surgical Reality - THR Planning with Corin OPS and Simpleware Software
Date: Wednesday, October 03, 2018
Time: 11:30 AM Eastern Daylight Time
Duration: 1 hour
This webinar will explore the Corin OPS™ Total Hip Replacement (THR) system through a patient’s journey. This involves performing pre-operative patient-specific analysis to improve surgical outcomes. We will demonstrate how medical imaging is used to create a personalized plan for the surgical procedure, including patient-specific 3D printed guides. In addition, tools are provided for post-operative assessment.

Abstract
Plasticity implies the Volterra formulation: an example
A demonstration through an example is given of how the Volterra dislocation formulation in linear elasticity can be viewed as a (formal) limit of a problem in plasticity theory. Interestingly, from this point of view the Volterra dislocation formulation with discontinuous displacement, and non-square-integrable energy appears as a large-length scale limit of a smoother microscopic problem. This is in contrast to other formulations using SBV functions as well as the theory of Structured deformations where the microscopic problem is viewed as discontinuous and the smoother plasticity formulation appears as a homogenized large length-scale limit.
Faculty Positions in the MIT Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) invites applications for several tenure-track faculty positions to begin July 2019 or thereafter. Appointments will be at the assistant or untenured associate professor level. In special cases, a senior faculty appointment may be possible.
